One-Track Mind
did it with a formula, did it with a plan
followed intuition, fallen in the sand
practiced under pressure, killed the lights at dawn
sat through empty lectures, ran through private lawns
I got a one-track mind and tunnel vision
nothing gonna change that now
when I'm given a wayward mission
I just wanna turn around
set my watch to a glacial patience
get in line for the atmosphere
I know I told you I don't mind waiting
but I gotta get outta here
and chart some nonsense with fairweather friends
march in time with a sea of students until I'm young again
raise my voice in a dancing choir
burn my words in a backyard fire
curse the man in a crowd of hippies
pack the van and trip the light through static
I got a one-track mind and tunnel vision
nothing gonna change that now
when I'm given a wayward mission
I just wanna turn around
set my watch to a glacial patience
hold the line until the signal's clear
I know I told you I don't mind waiting
but I gotta get outta here
feel like waving a banner off the overpass
when's the off-ramp, where's that laughing gas
I just wanted to talk shop, brass tacks and special ops
I got away from the vipers
but it feels like there's something on my back
I got a one-track mind and tunnel vision
nothing gonna change that now
when I'm given a wayward mission
I just wanna turn around
I can summon a glacial patience
scan the room while I hold your beer
I know I told you I don't mind waiting
but I gotta get outta here
followed intuition, fallen in the sand
practiced under pressure, killed the lights at dawn
sat through empty lectures, ran through private lawns
I got a one-track mind and tunnel vision
nothing gonna change that now
when I'm given a wayward mission
I just wanna turn around
set my watch to a glacial patience
get in line for the atmosphere
I know I told you I don't mind waiting
but I gotta get outta here
and chart some nonsense with fairweather friends
march in time with a sea of students until I'm young again
raise my voice in a dancing choir
burn my words in a backyard fire
curse the man in a crowd of hippies
pack the van and trip the light through static
I got a one-track mind and tunnel vision
nothing gonna change that now
when I'm given a wayward mission
I just wanna turn around
set my watch to a glacial patience
hold the line until the signal's clear
I know I told you I don't mind waiting
but I gotta get outta here
feel like waving a banner off the overpass
when's the off-ramp, where's that laughing gas
I just wanted to talk shop, brass tacks and special ops
I got away from the vipers
but it feels like there's something on my back
I got a one-track mind and tunnel vision
nothing gonna change that now
when I'm given a wayward mission
I just wanna turn around
I can summon a glacial patience
scan the room while I hold your beer
I know I told you I don't mind waiting
but I gotta get outta here
